In recent years, more and more men have been troubled by infertility diseases, and there are many reasons for male infertility, but most people do not know the causes of the disease very well. What are the common causes of male infertility? The following is to introduce the causes of male infertility for your reference.
Unbalanced diet
Although people's living standards have improved, they cannot live in a high-fat and high-nutrition diet every day, which will lead to over-nutrition or malnutrition, change the nutrition of semen and affect sperm motility. On the contrary, if malnutrition will lead to insufficient nutrition of sperm, sperm can not get nutrition, and then lead to a large number of sperm death, its quality will also decline.
Bad habits
Nowadays, urban nightlife is relatively rich, especially after a busy day's work, many people like to go to some places for relaxation. Of course, smoking and drinking are indispensable in such nightlife. Long-term smoking and drinking will lead to a decline in the number, quality and activity of sperm.
High working pressure
The current pace of life is generally accelerated, which has a great impact on men's mood, especially in the long-term stress life. The tense mood will affect the reproductive ability, resulting in a decline in sperm volume, sperm count and sperm activity. In addition, these emotions will also affect the endocrine balance of the body, resulting in the involvement of reproductive function and increasing the probability of infertility.
Inspection methods for male infertility
Semen examination
Semen is a necessary material for fertility, so it is necessary to check semen, including semen volume, color, pH, semen liquefaction time, sperm density, sperm activity and sperm morphology.
Genital examination
Generally, abnormal reproductive organs will also have an impact on fertility. The contents of this examination include: visual and palpation of penis, urethra, testicle, seminal vesicle, prostate, etc. Check whether there is serious phimosis, induration, inflammation, and dysplasia.
Examination of prostatic fluid
Generally, the normal prostatic fluid is milky white and weakly acidic, and the white blood cells are less than 10 under high power microscope. If the male prostate is abnormal, it will lead to the increase of white blood cells.
Immunological examination
Check for antisperm antibodies. At present, the commonly used methods include sperm agglutination test, sperm immobilization test, solid phase enzyme test, post-test, etc.
Sperm penetration test
Normal sperm does not necessarily represent that sperm has penetration ability, and further sperm penetration test must be carried out, because the penetration ability of sperm is the actual fertility of men.
